Strawberry Cream Cookies

Strawberry Cream Cookies

Cook is home, and he is cooking. Wednesday he decided he wanted cookies and this is what we got. A yummy and soft cookie topped with a cream cheese and strawberry jelly frosting. Irresistible! Plus, this frosting of his taste good on other stuff like bananas and oatmeal.

The cookie is actually a soft snicker doodle recipe minus the sugar and cinnamon.

Instructions

For the Cookies

Preheat oven to 350

Mix butter, 1 1/2 cups sugar and eggs thoroughly in a large bowl

Combine flour, cream of tartar, baking soda and salt in a separate bowl

Blend dry ingredients into butter mixture.

Chill dough, and chill an ungreased cookie sheet for about 10-15 minutes in the fridge

Place one inch globs of dough on chilled ungreased cookie sheet, and bake 10 minutes.

Remove from pan immediately.

For the Frosting

Cook found a nice Cream Cheese Frosting on Simply Recipe. For the cookies he halved the recipe, added a bit more cream cheese (so it would be less sweet), and then mixed in some strawberry jam. Tastes wonderful!
